Landing Skid
1.
From the DuBro RC pushrod kit (DUB922) cut a 4-1/2 in. length of the 0.045 in. diameter wire. Use the plan
set as a guide and bend this wire to the shape illustrated.
2.
Locate the 1/16 in. ply part F19b (sheet 20/21) on top of 1/32 in. ply part F19a (sheet 19/21) matching the
corresponding edges and laser drilled holes in each part. Bond together using medium CA glue. Once glue
has cured test fit your bent tail skid wire to assembly and adjust fit if required. Bond tail skid wire within parts as
illustrated below using medium CA glue.
3.
Bond the F19c 1/32 in. ply part (sheet 19/21) on top of F19b to capture wire tail skid. Allow glue to cure then
use the plan set once again as a reference an bend wire to final shape required by tail skid assembly. See
illustration below.
